chilling

Suddenly there was a clanging sound from upstairs, as if someone was shaking the iron railings, Gu Jia pouted, and went upstairs with a lollipop in her mouth to teach the restless prisoners, Yu Xiasheng looked at her back, and suddenly remembered that she should have Is one of the juvenile delinquents.

Modern society does not advocate "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" acts of revenge. Although Gu Jia's behavior back then was justifiable, the essence was to disrupt order.If Lu Huaiming hadn't let her go, she would be locked up on the top floor like Chu Xiaohan now, maybe she could still be Chu Xiaohan's cellmate.

Lu Huaiming's intention for keeping Gu Jia behind was still unclear.Du Xiaoyuan could turn a blind eye to this, but Yu Xiasheng was used to being cautious, and always felt that something was wrong with Lu Huaiming's actions.Later, when Du Xiaoyuan proposed the experiment plan, Lu Huaiming seemed to have prepared it long ago, and only then did Yu Xiasheng discover his intention.

Scheming, really scheming, just wronged that unlucky child.Yu Xiasheng's eyes fell back to the bag of biscuits in Lu Huaiming's hand, he thought that Yu Qiuliang was really big-hearted, he was sold and paid for.

But Yu Qiuliang's mind doesn't seem to be that wide-eyed, he's quite cautious.Yu Xiasheng stretched his waist, got up suddenly, took the biscuit bag in Huai Ming's hand, and criticized seriously: "The state has the state law, the family has the family rules, and the unit has the unit's rules and regulations. It is said that eating in the conference room is not allowed. Just don’t eat in the conference room.”

"Little Comrade Gu Jia is also eating candy." Lu Huaiming stared at him with a fake smile, "Why don't you talk about her? Are you..."

No, nothing.Yu Xiasheng thought to himself.

However, he said: "Thank you for the reminder. When she comes back, her lollipop will be confiscated."

Whether it's lollipops or biscuits, they will be locked in a metal cabinet in the end, moldy and hairy in a dark place.Yu Xiasheng put the key of the cabinet in his pocket, turned his head and said to Lu Huaiming, "Next time I see you eating in the meeting room, I will hand in everything and confiscate it."

Lu Huaiming didn't mind whether it was confiscated or not. What he cared about was that Yu Xiasheng used the rules as a cover to avenge his personal revenge.But Yu Xiasheng's position is there, no matter how dissatisfied others are, they can't shake him in the slightest, so Lu Huaiming hesitated to speak several times, but finally held back.

The factory abandoned by Chi Yu is of little value, what is really valuable is the things hidden behind Chi Yu.Yu Xiasheng looked at Du Xiaoyuan, she was surprisingly silent today, except for necessary explanations and reports, she didn't say a single unnecessary word.Silence is a good cover for complicated emotions. Once she doesn't quarrel with Yu Xiasheng, the latter will immediately know that there is something hidden in her heart. Besides, her mind is very easy to understand, and she can make a good guess with random guesses.

Lu Huaiming, who had his biscuits confiscated, left the meeting room angrily, probably going upstairs to have a heart-to-heart talk with Chu Xiaohan.Yu Xiasheng ignored him and let him go to Chu Xiaohan. That girl squatted in the room every day to be bored, and whoever came to stare at her could prevent her from being idle and messing around.

A girl in her prime, who committed a crime and was locked up in a small dark room, presumably she was psychologically unbalanced.But no matter how unbalanced she is, there is nothing she can do. Who told her to follow Chi Yu and do something wrong?She is an adult and should be responsible for her actions. This is the bitter fruit she caused, and she must taste it herself.

"I've turned into ghosts and still eat all day, is that necessary?" Seeing that Gu Jia and Lu Huaiming had left the meeting room, Yu Xiasheng finally dared to complain.When Du Xiaoyuan heard him speak, she just raised her head and smiled. Her smile looked tired, as if it had been forced out.

After lowering her head and sorting out the documents for a while, she said softly, "If they want to eat, let them eat."

"He has that problem, and you are used to it." Yu Xiasheng quite disagreed with her point of view, but his tone did not seem to be referring to Lu Huaiming or Gu Jia.Lu Huaiming is not a junior, Gu Jia and Du Xiaoyuan are not very close, and it is impossible to talk about being spoiled, so there should be someone else who Yu Xiasheng said was spoiled by habit.

Du Xiaoyuan knew what he meant, and was about to refute, but gritted her teeth and was unable to speak.Regarding the matter Yu Xiasheng mentioned, she was indeed wronged and speechless. If she quarreled with the other party because of this, it would be a shame.

Education is an eternal problem. Throughout the ages, countless people's children have failed in education, and the child of Du Xiaoyuan's family is no exception.To raise a child, it is not acceptable to be too pampered or too indifferent.Du Xiaoyuan frowned, worried.She immediately remembered that Yu Xiasheng had clearly never raised a child, he didn't even have a brother or sister, and she didn't know from what angle he was criticizing others.

"Stop talking nonsense! Are you going, or am I going in person?" After holding back for a long while, the violent temper still persisted, Du Xiaoyuan took a deep breath, and his attitude became fierce again.Yu Xiasheng was attacked by her, but he was neither angry nor annoyed, and even thought about the question she raised seriously.

The final conclusion is still ambiguous and the outcome is unclear: whoever has time will go.

So who has more time?Du Xiaoyuan sighed, and suddenly wanted to find an excuse, saying that he was going shopping and was going to buy new clothes, so he logically shifted the responsibility to Yu Xiasheng.There are very few jobs that make her unwilling to take over, the one she encountered today is one, and it is probably the only one.

The door of the meeting room was suddenly pushed open, and the door panel slammed heavily against the wall, before bouncing back.Du Xiaoyuan looked at Gu Jia outside the door in astonishment, not understanding what happened for a moment.

Gu Jia had a lollipop in her mouth, but her face was not very good-looking. The sweetness of the candy could not save her bad mood at all. There were big clouds of black air around her, which was a sign of her anger.Her face was painted, but it was not wounded, but literally "painted". The traces of red and blue colored pencils stood out on her cheeks, like the patterns painted on the face by primitive tribes in the jungle.

"She's going crazy again." Gu Jia wiped her face indifferently, but unfortunately she couldn't wipe off the traces of the colored pencils, but made them smudge a large area.Without even thinking about it, it was Chu Xiaohan who was "crazy again".During the period when she was locked in the small black room, she almost made trouble two or three times a day. Yu Xiasheng and Du Xiaoyuan were used to it, so they didn't take Gu Jia's words to heart.

But since Gu Jia said it, the situation must be different from before.Not long after, Lu Huaiming, who had gone to the top floor, also came down, holding a half-burned photo in his hand.The face part of the photo was destroyed, I don't know where Chu Xiaohan got the fire.

When they threw Chu Xiaohan into the small dark room, they only took away the things that might be used as murder weapons and communication tools on her body. As for the wallet, business card and photos, they were still on Chu Xiaohan.Yu Xiasheng took the photo and looked at it for a long time, still not sure why.He has seen everything on Chu Xiaohan's body, and there is nothing special enough to be noticed.

Even that photo was just a photo of Chu Xiaohan and a little girl.The girl looked young, and probably didn't have much to pay attention to, so Yu Xiasheng just looked at it and passed it by without thinking too deeply.However, if the photo is really not important, why did Chu Xiaohan burn it?Could it be that the little girl who was standing with Chu Xiaohan also had the same problems as her?

"How do you say it?" Yu Xiasheng couldn't laugh or cry, holding on to the half-ambiguous photo.Even if there was really important information hidden in the photo, and it was burnt to its present unrecognizable appearance, the original information must have been destroyed, and the blame could only be due to negligence at the time, leaving something for her to play with.

Now that it's burned, forget it.The photos cannot be recovered, so instead of entangled, it is better to save time to do other things.Chi Yu's whereabouts are erratic, sometimes in the south, sometimes in the north, we must first find out the trajectory of his activities, and then follow the vines to find him.Yu Xiasheng put only half of the photos left in the bag, and stretched out his hand towards Gu Jia.

"What are you doing?" Gu Jia frowned and stared, imitating Du Xiaoyuan's ferocious demeanor by ten percent.Under the influence of Du Xiaoyuan, Gu Jia was influenced by his ears and eyes, and his temper became more irritable, and he dared to confront Yu Xiasheng.

She was openly holding a lollipop in the conference room, but she was ashamed to ask others what they were doing?Yu Xiasheng sneered, pointed to the thin stick in her mouth, and motioned for her to take it out.Gu Jia looked at Yu Xiasheng's fingers suspiciously, pulled out the thin stick she was holding, looked at it twice, stared at Yu Xiasheng as if he was looking crazy, and asked, "Do you want this thing?"

It turned out that she had already finished eating the lollipop, and what was in her mouth was just the stick underneath.I don't know if the sweetness of candy remains on the thin stick, but Gu Jia keeps holding the stick in her mouth and is reluctant to throw it away.

Yu Xiasheng's hands trembled, but he couldn't hold it back, and yelled at Gu Jia: "Take it away! Throw it away!"

This girl looks good, how can she be so troublesome!

Gu Jia was inexplicably attacked by him, and his hands shook in fright, and the thin stick immediately fell to the ground, sticking to the scattered white paper on the ground.Du Xiaoyuan sighed slightly, picked up the paper and sticks for her and threw them away, and she just said thank you blankly.

In the past two days, the society has been stable, and no one is running around, killing people and stealing goods. Yu Xiasheng's work has become a lot easier. After the meeting and finishing the backlog of affairs from last week, he plans to go back to catch up on sleep.Lu Huaiming and Gu Jia had already been replaced by colleagues on shift, and they were both lying in the lounge, nestled in blankets and pretending to be dead, only Du Xiaoyuan was still holding a cup of coffee, working unremittingly on the front line.

Hard work is a good thing, but too hard work can easily cause death from overwork.Du Xiaoyuan is not a living person, so he doesn't need to worry about death from overwork, but he can run overloaded for a long time, even a ghost can't stand it.Didn't Lu Huaiming and Gu Jia couldn't stand it anymore, so they obediently ran to rest?

Those who are tired but unwilling to rest are either guilty or guilty——Du Xiaoyuan is the latter kind.

Du Xiaoyuan answered the phone, with a slightly anxious expression on her face. She stood up from her seat and looked around for Yu Xiasheng.Although she always had conflicts with Yu Xiasheng, fighting every three days and fighting every five days, but when something happened, the first person she thought of who was trustworthy was always Yu Xiasheng.Friendship is a wonderful thing that cannot be explained clearly. Unless it is the person involved, it is difficult to break it apart; it is like the love and hatred between Du Xiaoyuan and Yu Xiasheng, no one else can understand it anyway.

"What's wrong? Something happened?" Yu Xiasheng waved to her and poured himself a cup of coffee as he asked.The coffee in the office is really bad, but he has no money to order takeaway, so he has to endure it and wait until he gets rich later.

"It's not an accident, it's a minor situation." Du Xiaoyuan put down his phone, and when he passed by Yu Xiasheng, there was a gust of wind.Yu Xiasheng looked at the direction she was going, hesitated for a moment, and followed her with a cup.

What they are about to go to is the "small black room" on the top floor of the building. In layman's terms, it is a cell with better treatment.The person in charge of guarding Chu Xiaohan couldn't hold her down, so he asked Du Xiaoyuan for help just now. It was said that Chu Xiaohan's mental state was not right, and his words and deeds were very different from usual.This time, Chu Xiaohan didn't seem to be pretending to be crazy anymore. There might be something wrong with her.

The Little Black House is a misnomer, it doesn't look like a Little Black House, maybe it's more appropriate to call it a Little White House.White doors, white window frames, white walls and beds, white ceilings, and blinding lights.Everything is white, and they unite to assimilate the prisoners imprisoned here into pure white.

Chu Xiaohan was wearing a white skirt, sitting on the ground holding a plastic vase and chattering about things that others could not understand at all.The moment she saw her, Du Xiaoyuan was startled, her eyes were bloodshot, she looked like she hadn't slept peacefully for several nights.Maybe she was asleep, but she didn't sleep well, so she looked listless, and there were blue and black circles around her eyes.

In her hand she held two watercolor pencils, which the guards had brought her to amuse her.Yu Xiasheng had specifically told her to bring her whatever she wanted, except murder weapons and communication tools, so when she asked for watercolor pens, the guards brought them to her.She was holding a watercolor pen, and she didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but today, she painted thick red, blue and blue lines on everyone who approached her without exception.

Chu Xiaohan uttered an indistinct syllable, Yu Xiasheng closed his eyes and listened carefully, and found that what she kept repeating was a sentence that sounded meaningless.

"The flowers are red and the sky is blue."

"What do you mean?" Yu Xiasheng remembered the two marks on Gu Jia's face, and realized that the two watercolor pens that Chu Xiaohan wanted were red and blue.

Flowers are red, of course, but there are other colors, and the sky, for the most part, is blue.

What kind of thoughts does she want to express by repeating this sentence?

"Red flowers, blue sky." Yu Xiasheng rubbed his chin, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, "How does this sound...like a kindergarten child learning to speak?"

Du Xiaoyuan moved his lips, but before he could answer, he suddenly saw Chu Xiaohan tearing the bed sheet to the ground, and began to spoil the clean bed sheet.The handwriting of red, red, blue and blue outlines two human figures holding hands on the bed sheet. The one on the right is short and the one on the left is tall. Both of them are wearing skirts. The patterns on the skirts are very exaggerated, and they are large clusters of flowers. .The little people are stepping on what looks like grass, which is also full of flowers, and above their heads is the blue sky.

"..."

Yu Xiasheng finally understood why Gu Jia suddenly mentioned that Chu Xiaohan was going crazy.

Judging from the situation...she might really be crazy.

"My God..." Du Xiaoyuan was stunned, and murmured, "What is she drawing?"

This scene was too weird, scarier than monsters, scarier than ghosts, Chu Xiaohan laughed and cried for a while, ruined the bed sheets crazily for a while, and hugged the vase and whispered in a low voice for a while.Seeing all this, Yu Xiasheng frowned tightly. He clearly heard Chu Xiaohan calling "sister", but how could she have a sister?

Is that the little girl in the photo?

Even if she was Chu Xiaohan's younger sister, Chu Xiaohan shouldn't go crazy like this. Ever since Chu Xiaohan appeared in Yu Xiasheng's sight, Yu Xiasheng had never seen her take care of anyone or send anything to anyone.Anyone with a discerning eye can see that she will not be the guardian of her "sister", and she has no possibility of raising her sister.

Then, what worries her must not be her sister's inability to live, but other things.

Something about her sister...

A flash of light flashed in Yu Xiasheng's mind, he put the coffee cup into Du Xiaoyuan's hand, and slipped downstairs like a somersault.Du Xiaoyuan was inexplicably surprised, and was stunned for 3 minutes before looking down at the coffee cup in his hand.

The unmelted sugar cubes are still soaking in it, slowly rising and sinking.

When I came back last night, I was frightened and the wind blew, and I was woken up by Yu Xiasheng's cell phone ringing early this morning, which made Yu Qiuliang feel uneasy.After Yu Xiasheng left, he slept for more than an hour before getting up from the bed, only feeling top-heavy and cold all over.

The body's familiar perception told Yu Qiuliang that he had a fever.His physique is really poor. If he is a little tired, he will get sick immediately.

"I have a fever, so I won't go today." After struggling to wash up, Yu Qiuliang lay on the bed, typed a line tremblingly, and sent a message to Song Ciran.He was chilling all over, and he just wanted to shrink into the quilt, but the quilt had been replaced with a thin quilt, no matter how tightly he wrapped it, it would not help.

Song Ciran's reply came soon, and the kid was indeed looking at his phone.Yu Qiuliang squinted his eyes, and after reading Song Ciran's news, he felt a splitting headache.He can't take today's exam. If the fever doesn't subside tomorrow, he won't be able to take tomorrow's exam. It will be delayed for several days. When he returns to school, his desk will be filled with countless test papers and answers. Paper flooded.

Yu Qiuliang forcefully opened the closet door, dragged out a thick quilt from the bottom of the closet, and covered it impatiently, then went to touch the phone and sent a message to the head teacher.When he asks for leave, he always sends a text message in a perfunctory manner. As the college entrance examination is approaching, the head teacher doesn't want to bother them much. Yu Qiuliang's leave is even more perfunctory. He fell asleep after sending a text message, and didn't care whether there was a reply on the phone.

Suddenly, Xie Jiangyue's face appeared in front of Yu Qiuliang's eyes.

Now his mind is not clear, but he finally realized why he doesn't like Xie Jiangyue.

Xie Jiangyue had the face of an imaginary enemy in his mind.

...Especially, those eyebrows, those eyes.And the smile on her face, which is completely artificial and hypocritical.

"..." Yu Qiuliang's head hurt even more, and he also felt dizzy for a while.

There was no fever-reducing medicine at home, and Yu Qiuliang didn't want to go downstairs for an injection, so he could only lie down under the blanket.When he had a fever last time, Yu Xiasheng happened to be home, but this time Yu Xiasheng had just gone to work, and he hadn't been out for a long time, so it was hard for him to call Yu Xiasheng back to take care of himself.

When he was most uncomfortable, he actually thought of the person who made him most uncomfortable.Yu Qiuliang lay down for a while, but still couldn't fall asleep.The little black cat woke up, slipped through the crack of the door and jumped onto Yu Qiuliang's bed, stretched out its soft tongue, and gently licked his cheek.

The kitten is obedient and cute, but if it were an old ghost...hehe.There was neither a kiss nor a hug, and maybe he had to be carried to the community clinic downstairs, where he was pressed to the bed for injections and medicines.

"So cute." Yu Qiuliang kissed the kitten's ear and heard it meowing uninterruptedly.

I hope the kitten will not think he is dead, and bite him twice while he has a fever.

The little black cat retracted its nails, lightly touched Yu Qiuliang's forehead, and turned around in a hurry.

It turned its head to look at the black shadow outside the window, arched its back, and called again: "Meow!"
